Rumors abound, the date is unknown, finishing rates are ridiculously low, wimps and those with huge ego’s need not apply.

Please consult with your pastor, insurance agent, and Big…

The 2006 H.U.R.T. Trail Series schedule has been announced. These are fun, low key runs with a variety of distances. They make a great way for new trail runners to experience the trails and for experienced trail runners to judge their fitness and speed against others. The first race is in April and they continue…
Davey Crockett posted a great HURT race report on the Ultra list and he gave me permission to link it here. It includes photos and times and is very well written. Click here to read his report.
Little known is the efforts of a few very very tired friends, who stuck around right after the race, and then came to the Nature Center the morning after, to deal with the aftermath of the mess we created there. I’m talking about Mike and Patricia, Joel and Stephanie, and the Huffer, who swept, mopped…
I have some video clips that were taken during the race. Some show parts of the trail and aid stations and others are interviews with either runners or pacers. These were shot with a Treo–basically a phone, so the quality is not professional but they are still fun to view. Click here for the link….
Daren Sefcik sent me a link to a page on his web site with some great photo’s of the H.U.R.T. 100 course. These were taken the day before the race. A great way to show friends where you spent your weekend. Daren also has photo’s from previous H.U.R.T. 100 races on his site too. Click…
I am posting the final-final results from the 2006 H.U.R.T. 100. It was a great race overall with ideal conditions and fantastic competition.

HURT enjoys the privilege of partnerships with State and Federal agencies that hold the responsibility of protecting Oʻahu public lands. Those partnerships are based upon mutual trust and cooperation and shared concerns for the ʻaina. To keep that trust and continue to be provided the opportunity to host trail events, we (HURT) must understand and abide by rules that govern our partner agencies.
HURT does organize and facilitate official trail maintenance only when coordination with our partners has occurred. All trail work is performed under the supervision of a permitted individual with advance permissions. Some trails are off-limits for HURT to perform trail maintenance due to the sensitive flora. No HURT trail maintenance will occur outside of these parameters.
HURT and its partner agencies require that no self-directed trail maintenance occur on publicly-owned trails. Any individuals performing trail work outside of official HURT-organized events, are doing so on their own accord and will be held personally responsible by State and Federal agencies for any violations. Such activity could jeopardize our relationships with partner agencies and lead to inability to use public lands for our events.
